Upon my word, says the Lamb, the time you mention was before I was born. The Wolf, finding it to no purpose to argue any longer against truth, fell into a great passion, snarling and foaming at the mouth as if he had been mad; and drawing nearer to the Lamb Sirrah ! says he, if it was not you, it was your father, and that's all one. So he seized the poor, innocent, helpless thing, tore it to pieces, and made a meal of it. FABLES AND ANIMALS. 71 THE APPLICATION. The thing which is pointed at in ...this fable is so obvious, that it will be impertinent to multiply words about it. When a cruel, ill-natured man has a mind to abuse one inferior to himself either in power or cou- rage, though he has not given the least occasion for it, how does he re- semble the Wolf, whose envious, rapacious temper could not bear to see innocence live quietly in its neighbourhood! In short, wherever ill people are in power, innocence and integrity are sure to be persecuted; the more vicious the community is, the better countenance they have for their own villanous measures.
